Bird is the Word

Many thanks for putting yesterday's Busier Bee on the PP. I appreciate your comments and favs so very much.

It was a gorgeous Fall day today in Cincinnati - and the forecast is for rain and colder. So I went to the zoo. We have one of the top zoos in the US. I saw so many wonderful animals today. Since I have a pass I just concentrated on the ones I really wanted to see. But this guy was not on my list. He just sits on the way around the Reptile House which I avoid at all costs. He caught my eye today as he just nods and nods and sticks his bird tongue out at you as you pass. I thought he had a lot of character.
He is beautiful. Congrats on the PP--well deserved.

You have really captured the texture of his coat and beak. Great macro.

Oh, how nice to go to the zoo... I have been looking for a nice day -not too hot- in Miami to do it. This is a gorgeous bird, and you captured it so nicely. Congrats on the PP.
